V Ark to help save humanity from natural disasters

In the film '2012' Hollywood, an ark was built in China to save people from the catastrophic events that took place. The Ark was massive, enough to accommodate and save thousands of people from being consumed by natural disasters.

Well, it seems that the concept is now a reality, only on one smaller scale. University Helwan Esmat Moatasem has designed a project called the Ark of v which could be responsible for saving valuable lives and the decrease in casualties in the case of a natural disaster, such as a large tsunami.

The Ark of v is a project designed by Esmat Moatasem of the Helwan University.
Natural disasters are not easy to treat, as nature always has the last word. But with the Ark of the V, many lives could be saved if such disasters occur. During the last decade, we have witnessed many tsunamis which is already hard to keep count. With this in mind, be constructed of durable materials to provide refuge and protection from powerful tsunamis Ark of the Moatesem. Since the waves carried debris high speeds while approaching the coast, the materials used to build the Ark (v) be able to withstand strong forces.

The Ark has been cleverly designed with Moatesem taking into account the various possibilities that could occur in the case of a tsunami. The Ark of v has two modes of operation. That is placed on one foot, minor flooding that did not dent the as the stand will help keep the Ark on a higher surface.

The stand has also been designed to allow water to flow through it to protect them from strong water currents. In the second mode, the Ark becomes a floating refuge as it may be linked to the Earth using adaptive networks that increase in length as the Ark begins to float higher. A unique feature of the fifth Ark is its LED lights will act as a signal of emergency where the ship is buried or swept.
